Focus Description:

The audience is shown a handkerchief and an ordinary match. Then the match is wrapped in a handkerchief and the magician offers one of the spectators to feel for the match and break it. After the match is broken, the handkerchief unfolds... and the match is intact.

Focus secret:

Previously, another match is sewn into the edge of the scarf, and the magician helps to feel it, and then offers to break it.

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

The threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Inequality creates the world's problems 16.02.2017

Scientists at the University of York have found that societies with more marked inequality have greater problems in terms of physical and mental health of the population, there is more obesity and illegal drug use, and there is more violence and less trust between people.

In addition to the above, inequality generates financial hardship, general and deep social instability, ever-increasing polarization of society, and even local climate change and environmental damage, because inequality spurs consumerism and overconsumption.

And although research has shown for decades that the structural elements of inequality in access to quality health care need to be changed, this is not happening and disparities persist. "For example, in many cities in the UK and the US, there is a gap in life expectancy between the poorest and richest segments of the population, amounting to 5-10 years and in some places up to 15-20 years," write professors Picket and Wilkinson.

Moreover, they believe that the long-term failure to solve these problems, regardless of the progressiveness of a particular government, has become one of the reasons that voters are increasingly turning away from old political parties. The widespread feeling in society that "ordinary people" are not interested in politicians "will only intensify due to the negative impact of the austerity regime on public health, which is already becoming noticeable in the statistics."

Within the last generation, economic growth has ceased to affect the health, happiness, and overall quality of life of people in rich countries. "Now more than ever, we need an inspiring vision of a future where societies emerge, where there are fewer inequalities and therefore can ensure equitable well-being for people and the planet as a whole."
